Chapter 307 – Grandson, Go Study Abroad

“Just a moment.”

Se-jun replied to Kellion’s call,

Step.

Kking?

And lifted Fenrir, who was happily eating the dried roasted sweet potatoes, and held him in his arms.

This was because Fenrir might take off the armor while he was away.

As Se-jun went outside with Fenrir like that,

-Hehehe. Has our Se-jun come out?

Kellion spoke to Se-jun. In a voice as if he didn’t know what to do because he was so pleased.

-What do you mean, “our Se-jun”?!!

Kaiser, who was beside him, reacted sensitively to Kellion’s words.

But,

-Hehehe. Why get so excited? Our Kaiser.

Kellion, excited by the discovery of the power of light, felt purely good no matter what Kaiser said.

-What?! “Our Kaiser”?! Are you crazy?!

As Kaiser grew even angrier at Kellion’s words,

“Lord Kellion, but why did you call?”

Se-jun hurriedly stepped in. If a fight broke out like this, Fenrir would be in danger.

Because he was a sunfish, Se-jun knew the hardships of a sunfish better than anyone.

-Ah. The reason I called you, Se-jun… Se-jun, sell the seeds of that flower to me!

Kellion pointed to a side and spoke.

“The flower?”

Looking where Kellion pointed, the fully grown Light-Watcher flower and the Sure-Hit Daebong Persimmon tree were visible.

“Ah. That was there.”

He had completely forgotten about the other crops on which he had sprayed the Elixir of Harvest to make pizza.

‘I should go check.’

As Se-jun was about to move,

-Let’s go quickly!

Grab.

“Huh?!”

Kellion, who was in a hurry, personally lifted Se-jun and carried him to where the Light-Watcher flower was,

Land.

And arrived in front of the Light-Watcher flower in an instant.

-Hurry and harvest it!

“Yes.”

Pluck.

At Kellion’s urging, as Se-jun plucked one of the Light-Watcher seeds densely packed inside the flower,

[You have obtained a Light-Watcher seed.]

[Your class experience increases minutely.]

[The proficiency of Seed Harvesting Lv. 8 increases slightly.]

[You must use the Seed Harvesting skill 746,159 more times until you complete the class quest.]

The message appeared.

Although he could harvest the seeds all at once if he broke the flower, Se-jun did not do so to complete his class quest.

“Check this first.”

-Hehehe. Thank you!

When Se-jun handed the harvested seed to Kellion,

[You have achieved the achievement of creating a new variety in the tower.]

…

..

.

[All stats increase by 10 due to class characteristics.]

Subsequently, even the new variety achievement message appeared.

“Huh?! Was this a new variety? As expected, Vice President Theo, well done!”

Se-jun, rejoicing at the unexpected message, praised Theo who brought the Light-Watcher seed.

Then,

“Puhuhut. I know, meow! I, Vice President Theo, always do well, meow!”

Theo naturally boasted and pushed out his chest.

But,

Kking?! Kking?!

‘What?! I only ate the energy of this and spat it out, so why is the power of light coming out of here?!’

Fenrir, who was held in Se-jun’s arms, was flustered looking at the Light-Watcher seed and flower Se-jun held.

‘What have I done…?’

To enter the Black Tower to look for the black fruit, and instead end up helping them find the power of light…

And of all things, it was the power of light. The power that has the highest resistance against the power of destruction.

In the past, when the White Dragons with the power of light acted as meat shields and other dragons attacked, it was difficult to deal with them.

That was why they lost…

If this were to be known to the other Apostles of Destruction, there would be no greater humiliation than this.

Kking…

‘I am Fenrir, the First Seat of the Apostles of Destruction… yet to help those dragons…’

The disheartened Fenrir’s ears and tail drooped.

At that moment,

“Chairman Park, Blackie also helped find the seed, meow! Blackie brought the seed in his mouth…”

Theo, who heard Fenrir’s gloomy whimper, started talking. ‘Puhuhut. Blackie, I get it, meow!’

He thought the reason Fenrir whined sadly was to ask for recognition of his contribution in finding the Light-Watcher seed.

Thanks to that, everyone here found out what Fenrir had done.

“Blackie did well too.”

When Se-jun, who heard Theo’s words, took out dried roasted sweet potatoes to give to Fenrir as a reward,

Kking!

‘Food!’

The gloomy attitude of Fenrir changed in an instant.

Perk.

Fenrir’s ears perked up sharply,

Swish. Swish.

And his tail wagged relentlessly.

Leaving his worries from just a moment ago behind, Fenrir stared only at the food in front of him.

A predator does not think of other things when hunting. It was indeed an excellent concentration worthy of a noble wolf.

“Here.”

Munch. Munch. Munch.

‘Khehehe. Food!’

While Fenrir focused on the dried roasted sweet potatoes and ate them deliciously like that,

-To think that you brought the Light-Watcher seed! Then I must give a great reward to both of you.

Kellion tried to give them a reward.

“Puhuhut. Lord Kellion, what are you going to give us, meow?!”

-I will especially bestow upon you two the surname Mamuve.

“Meow?! I hate that, meow! My surname is Park, meow!”

‘My name is Theo Park.’ Theo, who had received Se-jun’s surname, rejected Kellion’s proposal,

-Khahaha.

Kaiser, who had been rejected by Theo before, laughed pleasantly as he looked at Kellion.

-Ahem… Is that so?!

Kellion, who felt awkward at Theo’s words.

-Then… I will give you my hide.

Kellion, after pondering for a moment, decided to give his hide,

“Good, meow!”

-Done.

As soon as Theo agreed, he upgraded Theo’s hide. Fenrir’s hide too.

Thanks to that, Fenrir grew further and further away from being an Apostle of Destruction.

Pluck. Pluck.

While Theo and Fenrir received their rewards like that, Se-jun harvested the Light-Watcher seeds in earnest.

***

White Tower Administrator Area.

“Grandfather, did you call?”

Ajax, who received Kellion’s summons, appeared.

“Yes. Come here.”

Kellion called Ajax with a serious expression.

“Uh… Grandfather, what is… wrong?”

As Kellion’s atmosphere was unusual, Ajax approached hesitantly, checking his reaction.

“Look at this.”

Kellion handed the Light-Watcher seed to Ajax.

“What is this? I feel the power of light here.”

“It’s called a Light-Watcher seed.”

“Ah… but did you call me because of this?”

Ajax, who was born after the White Dragons lost the power of light.

Ajax wondered why Kellion was showing this to him.

To Ajax, the Light-Watcher seed was merely a mysterious seed containing the power of light.

“Sigh…”

Kellion let out a sigh looking at Ajax.

‘Can I really entrust the species’ crucial matter to him?’

Kellion’s expression looking at Ajax became complicated.

There was a reason Kellion did this. It was precisely because of the habit of the Light-Watcher seed.

‘With this level of power, even eating hundreds of thousands of them won’t restore our former power.’

At first, when Kellion saw the Light-Watcher seed, he was disappointed by the very tiny power of light contained in it.

However, as a result of examining the Light-Watcher seed, he found another method to obtain more power of light than just eating the seeds.

That was none other than planting the Light-Watcher.

The Light-Watcher had a habit of drawing in the power of light around it, similar to how the Dark-Watcher attracted curses.

So Kellion planned to grow Light-Watchers in large quantities in the White Tower to gather the power of light gathered around them.

If a lot of power of light gathered, the White Dragons would be able to absorb the power of light just by breathing nearby.

And planting the Light-Watchers naturally had to be done by the tower farmer, Ajax.

‘Ah… why is he so serious today? Can’t I just leave?’

While Ajax was grumbling in his heart looking at Kellion with a serious expression,

“Grandson, go study abroad.”

Kellion, who had made a decision, spoke in a firm voice.

“What?! Study abroad?!”

“Yes. Go to the Black Tower and learn farming properly from Se-jun!”

“What?!”

Ajax, who had become Se-jun’s slave but lived comfortably since they didn’t meet face-to-face.

“I will get permission from Se-jun.”

“Yes?!”

‘Please refuse!’ At Kellion’s words, Ajax prayed earnestly that Se-jun would refuse.

***

“Done.”

Se-jun harvested about 3,000 seeds borne on the Light-Watcher flower.

Step.

He picked up a seed and examined it closely.

[Light-Watcher Seed]

It is a seed of the Light-Watcher grown inside the tower, which is delicious because it absorbed sufficient nutrition.

Cultivated by a tower farmer familiar with farming, its taste and efficiency have improved.

Because it absorbs and stores light, it can grow even in places without light.

As it grows, it draws in the power of light around it. (The more Light-Watchers grow, the stronger the power to draw in the power of light becomes.)

Upon consumption, a very tiny amount of the power of light is stored in the body. (If there is the power of light, resistance to unclean things increases.)

Grower: Tower Farmer Park Se-jun

Expiration Date: 150 days

Grade: A

“Power of light?”

While Se-jun wondered what it was,

-That is a power that the Creator God bestowed upon us White Dragons, but was lost.

Kellion, who had remained quiet while Se-jun harvested the Light-Watcher seeds, answered.

“A lost power? Ah… so that was why…”

Only then did Se-jun understand why Kellion’s reaction earlier had been so intense.

-Se-jun, would it be okay if we grew the Light-Watchers in the White Tower?

Kellion asked.

“In the White Tower? Yes, go ahead. But you know, right?”

-Hehehe. Of course, of course. I will bring all the harvested seeds to you.

Kellion, who knew what Se-jun wanted, replied readily.

-Um… and regarding that… Ajax has to grow the Light-Watchers in the White Tower…

Kellion carefully brought up the topic.

“Yes. That’s right.”

-But as you know… Ajax’s farming skill is not very good…

“Yes. That’s… right?”

Just as Se-jun felt something was strange,

-So, I’m thinking of sending Ajax here… Would it be okay?

Kellion said he would send Ajax to the Black Tower.

‘What?! Ajax?! That can’t be.’

Se-jun refused Kellion’s words. ‘What if he kills our Blackie?’

Just by Ajax appearing, Fenrir, who would be exposed to his aura, would be in danger.

On top of that, if exposed to Ajax’s aura, the crops would also die.

‘And it’s hard for me too.’

It was not that it wasn’t hard just because he didn’t faint like before.

In the past, he had to confess his weakness, hurting his pride, but now he could just sell out Fenrir.

Kkirorong.

Fenrir, sleeping in Se-jun’s arms, unaware that he was being treated as the weakest.

‘Hehehe. Blackie, thank you.’

While Se-jun looked at Fenrir lovingly like that,

-Don’t worry about that. Because I will seal Ajax’s power.

Kellion replied. It was a part he had already kept in mind ever since he thought of sending Ajax to study abroad.

“Yes? A seal?”

-Yes. To about the strength of this statue.

Although one might ask if he could just send a statue, Ajax was too weak to move a statue.

“Well… if it’s that level of strength, it’s fine.”

-Yes. Wait just a moment.

The white dragon statue paused like that.

-Now, summon Ajax.

Kellion, who sealed Ajax’s power, returned and spoke,

“Yes. Summon Ajax.”

Se-jun summoned Ajax.

[Summoning Ajax Mamuve, the White Tower’s Tower Farmer.]

After about 10 seconds passed since the message appeared,

“No! I don’t want to go!”

A cute white dragon about the size of Cuengi appeared in front of Se-jun. Lying spread-eagled on the floor, throwing a tantrum.

But,

“Ajax, get up.”

This was not the White Tower that tolerated Ajax’s tantrums.

‘Hehehe. That fellow Ajax, I can finally put him to work properly.’

There was only the Black Tower’s tower farmer, Park Se-jun, who was thinking of putting Ajax to work.

And,

“Puhuhut. Slave, wake up quickly, meow!”

Se-jun’s faithful right hand, Theo Park, was also there.

Kkueng?!

[Dad, who is this guy?!]

His left hand, Cuengi, as well.
